Weird European silver case thing- need help!

[Omega]

Anyone have any idea what this is? At first I though it was a cig case, then i thought a wallet, but nothing is making much sense. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you so much. I paid $10.

It is a cigarette case. Cool find I can't tell you what the markings me but deafly for cigarettes I'm pretty sure.

It's a Sterling Silver English cigarette case. Those are English hallmarks. I used to collect them.
